About Our Newsletter
Weekly Market Strategies is a weekly on-line market letter commenting on the economy, economic indicators and the fundamental and technical aspects of the stock market.
Technical indicators and cycles are used to analyze the stock market and to predict the expected direction of the market during the next week and also the next few weeks and months.
We accurately predicted weeks in advance the October 2007 top and warned our subscribers about the coming sell-off. We recommended the purchase of put options to protect one’s portfolio. We also accurately predicted months in advance that the market would bottom late February/early March 2009 (actual date was March 9).
We also predicted in advance most of the tops and bottoms in the market during the past two years. Our past predictions can be found in our past news letters located in the past news letter file.

INDEX OPTION RECOMMENDATIONS
Two weeks ago we bought the DOW December 104 put (DIAXZ) at 2.70 to play the expected pullback into early December. We got stopped out when the cost of our option dropped by half. We will stand aside for the moment since it is not clear if a short term low is in or if a short term top was just made.
For investors it has continually been recommended that some puts are held to protect one’s portfolio (portfolio insurance) against sharp market sell-offs. New and/or additional positions should have been bought on the rally into mid-November. Take profits on any selloff into mid-December. For those who have no put options to protect your portfolio we recommended the following options, especially on any rally: the DOW February 100 puts (dianv) or the February 103 puts (diany) and the QQQQ February 42 puts (qqqnp) or February 44 puts (qqqnr).
For those of you who do not buy puts to protect your portfolio, there is an ETF that is the inverse of the DOW. The symbol is DOG and goes up when the DOW goes down and down when the DOW goes up.
